I'm baaaaaack!

We got in yesterday after the flight from hell -- a four and a half hour flight from Sacramento CA to Houston TX with a screaming 2 1/2 year old kicking the back of the seat of the Asian lady in the window seat next to Frank.  She tried 5 times very nicely asking the parents to make the kid stop and only got from them "Well he is only 2 1/2 years old, what can you expect?"  Aughhhh!  She did speak to the stewardess twice and got the statement that the plane was full they could do nothing about it.  We even tried talking to the stewardess because the kid was screaming at the top of his lungs, not crying, just plain screaming!

Then she tried twice to talk to to the kid sweetly and all cutsey.

Then she started getting mad after about 2 hours of this behavior and the parents not even trying to stop him.  At one point the father said to her that  she needed to be tied up and hauled off the plane.  Can you imagine??
THEN....she went ballistic twice.

Notice that not once did the stewardess ever try to intervene or ask the people to make the kid stop.  I thought they were going to call the air marshalls on the poor Asian lady.

It was insane.

Anyway, I have fabulous pictures and some stories about the 4 quilt shops I visited.

I got some really cool stuff !!!!!

  1. What a nightmare of a flight. Makes private car travel more and more attractive every time.

    LOL - how come you keep company with such old people? Isn't it amazing how everyone else ages. You never realize how old we are getting until we see someone we know is our own age.

    Every once in awhile I think, boy am I married to an old man. Then I walk by the mirror in the hallway and find that he's not so old after all.
